Upright frost free freezer would not keep food frozen (Frigidaire name plate but made by (Electrolux) testing determined the refrigeration system worked but it would not defrost. Kenton K. • Chanhassen , MN • May 31, 2020
Fixed it by replacing the electronic control board. Only 30 min. to fix. (See further down for effort to diagnose the problem.) Most of this "fixing time" was spent removing the control panel to access the control board that is attached to it. My freezer has the control panel located in the top center of the door. The only way to remove the control panel is to pry the panel out of the door using a thin-bladed putty knife.The instructions provided were very good in explaining the process;...

The Door Gasket is an OEM part for Frigidaire refrigerators. It ensures a tight seal around the door, preventing cold air from escaping and maintaining the set temperature inside the appliance. Over time, the gasket can wear out, become brittle, or lose its elasticity, leading to gaps between the gasket and the appliance frame. The gasket measures approximately 31" x 60"
Causes of a bad door gasket can vary from normal wear and tear to accidental damage.
Symptoms of a bad Gasket include:
- Noticeable gaps or tears in the gasket
- Difficulty in maintaining the set temperature
- Condensation or frost buildup around the door
This OEM Frigidaire part can also be used on Electrolux, Frigidaire, Gibson, Kelvinator, Westinghouse, and Sears/Kenmore.

The Defrost Timer is an OEM replacement part for Frigidaire upright freezers. It serves as a crucial component responsible for regulating automatic defrost cycles.
Causes of a faulty defrost timer relate to 20,000+ hours of constant exposure to freezer temperatures as low as -10 degrees Fahrenheit. Such extremes can compromise electrical switching mechanisms over prolonged usage periods.
Symptoms of a failed defrost timer include:
- Inability to initiate automatic defrost modes
- Excessive ice and frost accumulation inside cabinet
- Warm areas detected due to impaired fan circulation
- Diagnostic codes indicating defrosting problems
This genuine Frigidaire replacement part is compatible with Kelvinator and some Kenmore units as well.

Freezer would not shut down kept running continuously Jd F. • Russellville , AR • October 22, 2014
Suspected it was the thermostat, since temperature stayed the same at multiple settings over a 24 hr period. There was only three components inside the freezer besides the evaporator, the fan was working, so I decided to just go ahead and replace the thermostat and defrost thermostat. Also replaced the defrost timer by the compressor, just to get all the old parts replaced with new. I had already replaced the compressor, so now I've pretty much have a new freezer. The new parts works great and...

1: loud noise on freezer side. 2: no water dispensing Matt M. • Pickett , WI • February 05, 2021
1. After hearing a loud noise on the freezer side of unit about halfway up, I started investigating what it could be? My conclusion was evaporator motor or evaporator fan blade. One of the signs of this issue was a distinct change in sound when I opened the freezer door. I ordered a new motor and blade, not knowing exactly what it was.
2. I couldn't get water to dispense, so I changed the filter and that wasn't the problem. I ordered a water valve and crossed my fingers. These parts arrived...

The electrical board I found under the fridge was very easy to replace.

Door racks/door stop broken. Jennifer S. • Lincoln , NE • December 13, 2020
I wasn’t sure where I could get parts for the fridge, Google brought me here. Super easy to look up model #’s and locate parts by type/location with the appliance map. I needed to change the racks and the doorstop. The racks were super simple. I would have succeeded with the doorstop too, but the holes at the bottom are stripped and the doorstop wasn’t secured correctly in the first place. So that’s frustrating, but appliance parts pros were easy to use, parts came quickly and The video from...

Deep freezer was tripping gfci outlet every day Bryan K. • Aubrey , TX • November 29, 2014
I determined that it was a problem that occurred during the defrost cycle by resetting the GFCI outlet and forwarding the defrost timer until the defroster came on. Once the defrosting began, the GFCI outlet would reliably trip. I took apart the shielding inside of the freezer and tested the defrosting without the heating element or the thermostat connected. Since that looked good, I tested for proper functionality of the thermostat by removing it, placing it in a working freezer, and checking...
